Favorite Crafts

I like making cell phone charms and jewelry, especially earrings. I'm learning knitting and crochet. I've recently got totally hooked on making ATCs. I hand draw many of mine, which has been great, because it has really gotten me feeling creative again.

I enjoy making crafts out of recycled materials.

I'm a doodler, and have tons of weird little sketches in all my notebooks from school and work.

Coffee (flavored and non), tea (all sorts), manga, anime, books, strange crafts, cats, owls, turtles, Johnny Depp, Hugh Jackman, comic books, poetry

Colors- Blues, black, earth-tones, flames

Wishlist

Stamps, scrapbook paper scraps, interesting postcards, notecards, stickers

Comment: I received this today. Sent a little late, but definitely worth the wait. This was an amazing package full of goodies this browncoat adores! The dress is definitely my favorite (love the wrench!). I put it up on my geek shelf at work next to the Star Trek engineer action figures (that seemed appropriate). The bag is fantastic; I love that it's handmade! I LOVE the stamps so much! And the stickers and an ATC and dino charm and memo pad and fortune cookie-ah! It was all perfect! Thank you!!!!!!!

Comment: Thank you for your list. I like the way you formatted it with the pictures of the books. There are a couple I haven't read that are on my list, and the Garth Nix book? Never heard of it, but will be adding it to my list :)

Comment: Thank you for your list and note. It was great to read through your list (you were correct: a lot I knew and a few I didn't!) and the reasons you chose what you did. And yet another reason I need to read Howl's Moving Castle this year! I loved the wardrobe you used for the list as well--clever!

Comment: Axolotl salamander is soooo cute. I had never even heard on one! You live in Wisconsin and you wonder how winter down here in Virginia is? Not as cold as where you are, I bet!! But, it has been tricky: warm, cold, hot, cold. Right now cold and snow. Cheers!!

Comment: YAY! The JKR one I wanted to add to my collection! I opened your letter and then promptly packed it (I'm moving to a new house) so I can't remember who the other author was, but I appreciated the book cover enclosed as well and will have to look her up in the new year. Thanks so much for the great cards!

Comment: So sorry for the ridiculously late rating! I was so convinced that I had rated this that I archived it and forgot about it. Shame on me! The package was fabulous. I loved everything - especially the little container with the ducky on it. Thanks so much!
